I have always found it SOMEWHAT difficult to put my engine into and out of gear. I of course know to squeeze under the shifter then push forward or backward. I do NOT have the shifter that has the screwdriver adjustment in front of it. It's always been like this. By that I mean it was like this before the engine was replaced and still is with the new one. I always manage but it shouldn't be as rough as it is. I've been dealing with bigger issues and thought maybe this would go away when new engine was installed. I do have a Hotfoot. Over a year ago my down trim quit working on the shifter. When that old dealership fixed it, they said some graph wires were rigged wrong around the shifter. The trim got fixed but the roughness in shifting was still there as it is now.
Are there any adjustments I can make anywhere?
It takes a tad of "umph" to get it out of gear from idle and I wish I didn't have to think about it so much. I know it's not the way it should be.
